FAQs

Is the Brooks Ghost 17 suitable for wide feet?

Yes, the Ghost series typically offers multiple width options to ensure a comfortable fit for a variety of foot shapes.

Can I use these for trail running?

The Ghost 17 is specifically engineered for road and pavement use; it lacks the aggressive tread and protective rock plates required for technical trails.

How often should I replace my Brooks Ghost 17?

Most running shoes lose their optimal cushioning performance between 300 and 500 miles, depending on your weight, surface, and running style.

Does this shoe provide stability for overpronation?

The Ghost 17 is a neutral shoe. If you require significant support for overpronation, you may want to look at Brooks models designed specifically for stability, such as the Adrenaline GTS.

Is the upper waterproof?

No, the engineered mesh upper is designed for maximum breathability and is not waterproof.

What is the weight difference between the Ghost 17 and previous models?

While weights vary by size, the Ghost 17 maintains a lightweight profile similar to its predecessors while benefiting from the updated, more responsive DNA Loft v3 foam.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure on top of the foot

Adjust the lacing system to a 'window lacing' or parallel pattern to relieve tension across the bridge of your foot.

Heel slippage while running

Use the extra eyelet at the top of the shoe to create a 'runner's loop' or lace lock to secure the heel cup.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Plush and responsive nitrogen-infused cushioning
  • Highly durable outsole suitable for high-mileage road training
  • Breathable and secure engineered mesh upper
  • Reliable, consistent performance across daily training sessions
  • Neutral support is ideal for a wide range of runner profiles

Cons

  • Not intended for high-speed racing or track sprinting
  • The plush feel may be too soft for runners who prefer a firm, ground-connected ride
  • Limited suitability for technical trail running or off-road terrain

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, verify your size using the UK scale, as the Ghost 17 offers multiple width options to accommodate different foot shapes. When putting on the shoes, ensure the engineered mesh is snug across the midfoot without being overtightened, as the material provides natural tension. To maintain the life of your trainers, avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can degrade the nitrogen-infused foam. Instead, remove the insole and wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. If the shoes get wet, air dry them away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the midsole foam from warping.
